Book recommendation especially good with BLW! :D

[Mervs Mum]

Hevz bought me this book as a little prezzie and it's FANTASTIC!

It's written by a mum who's baby was unwilling to be spoon fed so she needed food she could eat easily by herself.

The recipes are really simple and it sits really well with BLW and the book is really sweet too!

Thanks Hevz

I was looking at this book in Waterstone's with hubby yesterday until Alyssa tried to eat it

 

[Mervs Mum]

Good girl Alyssa! She was just showing you how much she likes varied finger foods! 'Mmmmmmmm.....Books Mummy!'

 

[AnnaBanana9]

We ended up buying her a board book for her pram, and she chomped on that instead!

I lurve this book and knew you would. Abi's birthday cake was in fact a brownie cake made using the brownie recipe in this very book (I just ate the last bit).

It has some fab ideas and recipes in there

What age does BLW start? Can you still try them early on it? Do they still start on baby rice and stuff like that? Curious now!

 

[Mervs Mum]

No purees/rice just straight to solid/finger foods at about 6 months.

No purees/rice just straight to solid/finger foods at about 6 months.

.....or whenever baby decides (apparently)

 

[Mervs Mum]

Yeah - I gave finger foods from 4 and a bit months. She only played with them tho.
